Translation

The lyrics are only in Hindi because the Sanskrit lyrics are sung again in Hindi. In the following the word Universe has been used for Hindi word Srishti but that is not an accurate translation because Srishti means everything including the Universe and the heavens and the entirety of existence i.e. all-encompassing existence. Note that although it is easy to assume that there is a gender associated with the Entity being referred in the lyrics, actually the lyrics go to great length in keeping the language neutral. That is why we refer to the Entity using That and It throughout.

Truth/Good did not exist before the Universe came to be
Neither did Untruth/Evil
Neither did Space
Neither did the sky
What was hidden? Where?
Who had covered it?
At that moment
Unmoving, strong ocean was not there either
Who created the Universe
Is that a creator or destroyer?
Lives in the high skies
Always plays the part of the leader
That only knows the truth
Or maybe not
No one knows really
No one knows
No one knows really
No one knows really

That(he) was wise before being born to Hiranya
That is the lord of all consciousness
That has the presence bearing the land and the skies Which God like that should we pray to with sacrifices?

The skies are lit with Its strength
The earty prosperous, established, stationary
Heavens and Sun also stationary
Which God like that should we pray to with sacrifices?

Born with fire in its womb
There was ocean here and there and up and below
Woken as the only life
Which God like that should we pray to with sacrifices?

Om! (Incantation) Creator of the Universe and heavens, ancestor watch over us
Immense ocean, savior of truth and religion watch over us
The vastness of directions are stretched like Its arms in all and over all
We should keep praying to God like that by offering ghee
We should keep praying to God like that by offering ghee

The Hiranyagarbha Sukta of the Rig Veda declares that God manifested Himself in the beginning as the Creator of the Universe, encompassing all things, including everything within Himself, the collective totality, as it were, of the whole of creation, animating it as the Supreme Intelligence.
